Description
The aim of this module is to provide students with a grounding in key areas of psychology and provide a foundation to underpin specialised psychology modules available in Years 2 and 3. The module presents thematic topics within psychology from the perspectives of four key approaches: developmental, biological, social, and cognitive psychology. The module will draw on those aspects of psychology which complement other core modules and situate the psychological concepts introduced within the broader field of Social Sciences. Topics to be introduced include: altruism, aggression, prejudice, personality, motivation, learning and behaviour, psychobiology and neuroscience, and psychology from an interdisciplinary perspective.
